Subject: [PATCH 1/2 v2] fs/proc/task_mmu: report SOFT_DIRTY bits through the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
Date: Mon,  6 Nov 2023 14:09:58 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231106220959.296568-1-avagin@google.com> (raw)

The PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl returns information regarding page table entries.
It is more efficient compared to reading pagemap files. CRIU can start
to utilize this ioctl, but it needs info about soft-dirty bits to track
memory changes.

We are aware of a new method for tracking memory changes implemented in
the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl. For CRIU, the primary advantage of this method
is its usability by unprivileged users. However, it is not feasible to
transparently replace the soft-dirty tracker with the new one. The main
problem here is userfault descriptors that have to be preserved between
pre-dump iterations.  It means criu continues supporting the soft-dirty
method to avoid breakage for current users. The new method will be
implemented as a separate feature.
